What are the methods to dispel wind during confinement?

During the confinement period, the mother's body is actually very weak, especially her immunity. If she does not receive timely nutritional supplements and care, she will easily catch a cold. It is actually quite common for women to catch cold during the confinement period, but it is important to detect it in time and use the correct methods to dispel the wind and keep warm.

What should women do if they catch a cold during confinement?

1. Drink ginger soup. Ginger soup can prevent colds and help postpartum women to have fever and sweat.

2. Pay attention to wind protection. It is best for the mother to have a sunny room during her confinement period. Keep the indoor temperature normal and pay attention to ventilation of the room to prevent bacterial growth.

3. Mothers should keep warm. The weather is relatively cool, so it is best for mothers to wrap a cloth towel on their heads or wear a woolen hat during the confinement period.

4. Don’t eat cold foods. The weather is hot in summer, so you should pay attention to food taboos. Don’t indulge in temporary pleasure and make yourself regret for the rest of your life.

5. Do not use cold water to wash your hair or take a bath, and it is best not to touch cold water.

Things to note for women during confinement

1. Pay attention to cleanliness. According to traditional confinement customs, women are not allowed to wash or even touch water during a month. In fact, this is wrong. Women should also pay attention to cleanliness and hygiene during confinement. Because the mother has to feed the baby, a clean and healthy mother can ensure the baby's physical condition. During the confinement period, you should wipe off the water stains and blow-dry your hair in time when taking a bath or washing your hair to prevent cold air from entering the body.

2. Pay attention to the ventilation of doors and windows. You should avoid being exposed to the wind during the confinement period, but you should keep the delivery room clean to prevent bacteria from growing and harming the mother.

3. Wear warm clothes during the confinement period. It doesn't mean that you have to wear a winter down jacket in the summer, but you should not wear short sleeves or shorts that expose your joints. The weather is cooler, so it is best to keep your head warm by wearing a hat or towel to prevent headaches.

4. The diet should be nutritionally balanced. There has always been a misunderstanding about diet during the confinement period, thinking that only eating meat can ensure the health of the mother. In fact, we should also pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables.
